'''Conscription''' is a type of [[Artifact]] in the ''[[Rogue Legends]]'' DLC for ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'', introduced in {{BTD6 version|48.0}}. It causes [[Military]] Monkeys to also be treated as [[Primary]], [[Magic]], and [[Support]] towers at the same time, thus benefiting from other Artifacts or Boosts that only work on a certain category of towers, but as a trade-off, it reduces the [[Range]] of such towers and also applies penalties to non-Military towers by reducing their damage and increasing the cost of their upgrades. Higher rarity versions of this Artifact reduce the range penalty which is completely removed at Legendary level and this rarity also reduces the drawbacks to non-Military towers. This Artifact allows Military towers to damage [[Dreadbloon (BTD6)|Dreadbloon]] during all immunity phases. | '''Conscription''' is a type of [[Artifact]] in the ''[[Rogue Legends]]'' DLC for ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'', introduced in {{BTD6 version|48.0}}.

{{BTD6 last updated|51.2|section=1}}Conscription works best on Military-focused defenses. Military Monkeys in general tend to have an advantage at long range and/or terrain placement, but tend to be expensive. The range reduction is only problematic on [[Monkey Buccaneer (BTD6)|Monkey Buccaneer]] and [[Monkey Sub (BTD6)|Monkey Sub]]; the lack of projectile lifespan loss is insignificant on most other Military towers. However, it's less forgiving and rarer than [[Unification]], as most of the powerful options are from the other tower categories. | {{BTD6 last updated|51.2|section=1}} | ||

* [[Critical Success]], [[Duckageddon]] and [[The Unspoken Heroes]] always have great synergy with the towers which launch a large amount of projectiles, like top / middle path Buccaneers, bottom path Snipers, top path Aces / Heli Pilots and Dartling Gunners. The [[Downdraft (BTD6)|Downdraft]] effect is also considered a projectile that can trigger those effects but it can cause large amounts of lag with enough attack speed buffs. | * [[Critical Success]], [[Duckageddon]] and [[The Unspoken Heroes]] always have great synergy with the towers which launch a large amount of projectiles, like top / middle path Buccaneers, bottom path Snipers, top path Aces / Heli Pilots and Dartling Gunners.
